This was a good book. It is much heavier on the characters than on the mystery - which happens to be just the way I like it. It is about five people who were great friends when they were young. Three of them , Gordon (aka Go-Go), Sean and Tim are brothers. The females in the group were Gwen and Mickey. Gwen's father is a doctor and her mother is an artist (not one that actually earns money from it!). Mickey lives with her mom and stepfather. Her life was not very stable and she loved to come to Gwen's house where Gwen's mom kept special treats just for her. The girls spent hours with the brothers exploring the woods nearby. When the book begins these people are all grown up. Gwen's mom has been gone for a long time. Her father is getting ready to return home to his house after breaking his hip. Although they could afford to hire overnight help, Gwen decides to take on that duty herself - mostly so she can absent herself from her husband. She hasn't seen those friends for many years. But Go-Go is dead and that will lead to a reunion - and the revelation of a few secrets!
